'''Huxley''' is the 2.3.11.13-[[subgroup]] [[regular temperament|temperament]] where [[512/507]] and [[1352/1331]] vanish. It is an [[extension]] of [[lovecraft]], the 4 & 13 2.11.13 subgroup temperament, to include [[prime harmonic|prime]] [[3/1|3]].


'''Huxley''' is name given by [[Deja Igliashon]] to the 4p&13p 2.3.11.13 subgroup temperament where [[512/507]] and [[1352/1331]] vanish. It is an extension of [[Lovecraft]] temperament, the 4p&13p 2.11.13 subgroup temperament, to include prime 3. It uses this mapping:
Its POTE generator is 282.4139 cents, almost exactly 4 steps of [[17edo]] (282.3529 cents). As such, 17edo may be considered the ideal equal temperament in which to use it. Other edos that support it are {{EDOs| 4, 13, 21, 30, 38e, and 47b.}}

It has [[moment of symmetry|moments of symmetry]] at 4, 9, 13, and 17 notes, and bears a tangential melodic relationship to [[orwell]] in that its 9-note mos has [[4L 5s|4 large and 5 small]] steps.
